Changes to meeting recordings - saved to OneDrive and SharePoint instead of Stream.
EmileRec Hello! I haven't had a chance to try this so I can't say anything about the inheritance and if they can actually delete the recording. But it's a good question and the official docs aren't clear about it.
In your scenario you're using a channel meeting and permissions are inherited from the owners and members list in the channel as per this description.
Who has the permissions to view the meeting recording?
- For non-Channel meetings, all meeting invitees, except for external users, will automatically get a personally shared link. External users will need to be explicitly added to the shared list by the meeting organizer or the person who started the meeting recording.
- For Channel meetings, permissions are inherited from the owners and members list in the channel.

Then you have a couple of disclaimers saying:
- "Only the organizer of the meeting (non-channel) and the person who started the recording will be able to edit the recording. But everyone invited to the meeting will be able to view the recording."
- "In Q1 of 2021, only the meeting recorder and organizer will be able to download the meeting recording. All other attendees will only be able to view it."

So I suppose you have to edit the permissions when recording a channel meeting (SharePoint) as the permissions are inherited. At least for now.
ChristianJBergstrom Any idea when you will be able to hit the "Share" or "Copy To" function in your personal OneDrive share if there is a recording you wish to send to a Stream Channel?
Really missing basic business functionality here... Even though a meeting occurs between just two people and gets stored in whomever's onedrive who clicked the record button in teams, doesn't mean it is only for those two people. It could be something that we want to promote to a project team channel, so that others can view the training video at any time... siloing it in one persons one drive is myopic.
If you want to make sure the team has access from the very beginning consider scheduling and record a channel meeting as the recording will be stored in SharePoint with the underlying permissions already set.
- Don’t you loose the ability to put in video time markers and video editing capabilities if you do it that way?
What happens when that employee leaves? Do all their recordings disappear since they are on their personal one drive?- i just can say LOL. Just have to accept it.
Andrew_Woo Yeah, just amazing to me that all of these issues could be solved by a simple "Share To Stream" or "Copy To Stream" option. Where it pop's up a channel listing from Microsoft Stream and you pick which channel to place it.
Right now we download from one drive, reupload to stream, add our video tag markers, and share it to the appropriate channels.
Not very efficient user experience.
- Well, there's still a gap in features if you look at the links above so it's true that you'll miss some functionality today.
As for personal meeting recordings being stored in OneDrive, and when users leave the company, you have the OneDrive "offboarding" https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/retention-and-deletion
